Abstract
A tape splicing apparatus in which two tapes are quickly joined with no air bubbles entrapped by splicing tape. A drum body holds splicing tape by suction pressure applied through holes and the peripheral surface of the drum. The splicing tape is cut into segments of predetermined length upon the drum surface. The drum is then lowered to the splicing position upon stationary and movable receiving stands to press the sticky side of the tape segment against the abutting tape joint. A movable roller presses the splicing tape segment, which was initially attached along only a single line, in forward then rearward directions from the center of the joint so that no air can be entrapped under the splicing tape.
